Unlikely given Turkey's partner status in the F35 programme, try harder with your cope.

I'm not saying this is surely going to happen.... this can be a possibility and you can never trust America when it comes to Israel....

On that we can both agree on.

Any system can be beaten if overwhelmed... that's not the point... it's like disarming country as much as possible to clear the skies for Israel

İn 2019 when Turkiye bought the S400s we had nothing to protect Turkish airspace

but now Turkiye has its own SIPER Air Defense System Family

and network centric SIPER will be more effective than the S400 (stand alone mode)

Range : 150+ km / 250+ km with booster
Altitude : 30 km
--450 km ALP-310G AESA Radar
-- Data link ( Link-16 , JREAP-C )


They think the F-35 is completely invisible.
The F-35's advantage lies against Fighter Jets with X band Radar

Turkiye has L-S-VHF/UHF band advanced Radars to detect the F-35 from 120+ km away

ALP-300G AESA Radar ( S band )
AN/FPS-117 AESA Radar ( L band )
Selex RAT-31DL AESA Radar ( L band )
also ALP-400G VHF/UHF band Radar .. ( under development )

An additional budget of $24 billion had been announced to produce indigenous Air Defense Systems including HISAR and SIPER
